just watched alien covenant, and boy, it is almost on par with the 1979 alien... prometheus got nothing on this bad boy... sad to say, there are very little information about shaw in this movie...but it is still great! 8/10!

I think the anatomical artwork on this is phenomenal. I would like to see how much more of Shaw is revealed. There are some things that strike me about this. Firstly the expression on her face, as if she died peacefully. But who knows maybe David cleaned her up. I’d say she is in a contraption to hold her in place, because of how the skin from the collar bones is held in place. That’s another important point imo. The skin would appear to have been carefully cut open, rather than ripped or torn. Whether the rest of the body is like that, who knows ?

Perhaps both? That image I included could just be the stage prop they put in the scene to be a substitute for Shaw's body in scenes that didn't do a close-up. This would allow them to have her in any scene in David's workshop without having to actually pay Noomi for the extra screen time.

I think it looks like she 'grew' that structure. It seems it may be a chest plate of sorts (mutated ribcage?) and she has been cut open and the chest plate structure has been rotated over her face and placed behind her head. I landed on this due to the skin in the neck area. It has been intentionally cut and if you look close you will see exposed chest/neck muscle tissue by the "v" in her shirt. Or maybe just specific elements are of the chest structure, and are rotated up via the autopsy. So unnatural that it is challenging to comprehend.

@ Spearfish Interesting choice of words. This got me thinking about the Spacejockey in Alien and the comments made about it looking like it grew out of the chair. I wonder if this is a clue or nod to Alien in some way.

@ Chris. Happy to see you like the new signature, it’s been a bit overdue.

Yes, I think we collectively have solved this mystery. This end for her is ironic, as the 'road to damnation is paved with good intentions'. She wanted answers, and couldn't reproduce, but now she is the mother of an abomination that is set to eliminate mankind as were the engineers she was chasing to ask 'why eliminate us?'.
